Home / Public Education / Oral Health Month
April is Oral Health Month! To celebrate Oral Health Month BCDA annually runs a brushing contest to encourage Kindergarten to Grade 3 students to brush their teeth morning and night. Each year, Parents, caregivers, and teachers can challenge children to make dental care part of their routine by brushing twice daily for a full month and tracking their progress on the printable calendar.
BCDA’s month-long contest promotes good dental health habits by:
Brushing twice a day is a simple step to help keep teeth clean and healthy and avoid cavities.
